eucalyptus tree run
We were running up Middle Drive. an incredibly pungent smell filled the air.
"What is that smell?" I asked W., who was running on the trail beside me.
"Ecalyptus trees."
"Which trees are the eucalyptus trees?"
"I don't know, I just know the smell."
Longer run this week. 8.5 miles for me. 100 minutes. We ran from conservatory on JFK to the Waist, over to MLK, down to Bernice Rodgers, up JFK to Chain of Lakes, up Middle Drive West, back over to JFK, down through Rose garden woods and back along 8th street flats to the conservatory.
Was tired. Out of shape. Spent the day recovering sloooowly. Brunch at Eat's. Mmmm.
Felt good to run that distance, though. Need to keep it up.
